My husband and I spent 5 days at the Palace -- what a treat! The property is astonishingly beautiful and incredibly well maintained and the level of service was fantastic. We've stayed at many five star hotels in the US and Europe, and we've never experiences such a caring, thoughtful and cooperative staff. The manager was waiting for us when... More

My husband and I stayed here from 6/13-6/16/13. It's a bit of a trek out but well worth it. The service is outstanding. We were pleasantly surprised by the food and the rooms. The grounds were spacious, the beach was private, and the cliff views were outstanding. We flew in from NYC for a weekend getaway and it was perfect.... More

We found this place on Groupon and booked our honeymoon at a steep discount during their "off" season (Dec-May I believe). For a reasonable additional fee we were offered the ocean view + Jacuzzi room by Mark Lahood. At first we were worried about the weather conditions being in their "off" season but we got rave reviews from a friend... More

I don't know if I can add much more than what others have said. First off I feel like such a loser for waiting so long to finally write this review. Once I got back from this AMAZING vacation the reality of everyday life set in and well, its just taken me a while to actually sit down and take... More

Work, kids, family can overwhelm our lives, but when my husband and I needed a getaway, we chose to stay four nights at the Palace. We left the week first week in March, and are counting the days until we can return to this place. The picturesque views are awe-inspiring, and bring you closer to nature. We paid additional to...

We took our first trip to the DR without doing much research, and we chose the Balaji Palace on a whim. We couldn't have been more pleased with the results. The grounds were immaculate and welcoming, and the staff was so professional and friendly. We felt like we were spoiled rotten every minute of every day by Juan Carlos, Felipe,... More

My husband and I had absolutely the best experience possible! We visited late Jan, 2013 and were blown away by the whole experience. The intimate atmosphere was perfect. Much better for us than a large all-inclusive where you have to schedule your dinner or fight for a chair at the pool. During our trip there were 4-6 of us in... More
